花莲打工换宿记 Work for stay in Hua Lien

考虑了好久，终于做了个决定，决定再还未正式开始工作时，给自己来体验打工度假。一开始是想要去新西兰 或者澳洲。 但是旅费预算太高了，所以毅然放弃了这两个地方而选择到台湾来。

Been consider for quite a long time, and finally i have make up my mind  to experience the working holiday just before the graduation. At first, i am thinking to go New Zealand or Australia , but the high budget involved force me to change the plan .    

                                                             
                                                                       走，打工换宿去 !
                                                                     Let's go work for stay !


我的第一站打工换宿是在花莲江老师的民宿。 这是一间尚未开张的民宿，打工内容是帮忙装潢民宿。 这个打工换宿是我在背包客栈无意之间看到，想到地点是在花莲，加上早已耳闻花莲的种种的美景，于是就联络乐江老师。

My first working holiday is in Hua Lien, Taiwan in Allen's homestay which haven't officially operate yet. Our task is to help in homestay decorating, renovation. I got this information from Backpacker Forum, Hua lien is a place that full with beautiful scenery. This is the main reason that brought me work for stay here.      

第一天  Day 1

从枋寮搭了四个小时的台铁到花莲花车站，到花莲时已是傍晚六点多。 江老师带了位帅哥弟弟来接我们。 一到民宿，surprise 就出现了.......................................................................................


We travel around four hours from Fang liao to Hua Lien Train Station , it was around 6pm. Allen and Harry came to pick us up at the station.  A big surprise at Allen homestay waiting for our arrival .......................... ...............................
   

哇，怎么那么多人！而且，一踏进门口，迎面而来的是“老大好”的声音。真的是吓了一大跳! 心想怎么会被称为老大，这该不会是“xx社团”,还是走错了地方.....一时都不知如何反应过来，真搞笑！后来，帅哥弟弟就解释这所谓老大的用意........可这可爱的帅哥弟弟用了好拐弯抹角,
弄得我一塌糊涂。原来每个新来的小帮手都得当老大，老大就是得请客，就这样老大就是这儿换宿的小传统。 好玩好玩！

Wah, so many people! We have been called as "Lao Da"  , what a surprise.. or perhaps shocks is the better description of my expression. What a funny incident! Later, Harry explained about the "Lao Da" rules. He explained too "detail" until i am confusing . In a simple words  "Lao Da" is actually the guy that pay for the first meal, this is a kind of traditional in Allen homestay. A great experience!       

                                                                  Harry  就是这位帅哥弟弟
                                                                  Harry, the handsome guy
  
吃了晚饭后，节目还未结束，海妮根Party 还在后头等着大家呢，在面海路边的Party还是别有一番风味的。 就这样第一天的打工换宿在没有打工的情况下结束了。  


After dinner, there is still a Heineken Party waiting for us. A party that held beside the roadside (just beside the sea) is awesome. Here comes to the end of  my very first day work for stay that in fact without any works done.  



第二天 Day 2

隔天我放假了，所以有机会到太鲁阁去走走。 我会在另一篇文章写关于这这优美的地方。

I got a day off the next day. So, i have given a chance to visit Taroko. I am going to write more about this beautiful place in another post.

太鲁阁常常会有泥石流和落石，这是参了泥的浑浊小溪。

从砂卡当步道沿着小溪所看到的风景，美！

第三天 Day 3

在花莲的第三天了，我才真正开工（哈哈！白白住了两天）。江老师给我的第一个任务就是披土。 孤陋寡闻的我还是第一次听到披土这词，完全没概念要怎么弄!经老师和Noel 调教，我一会儿就上手了，慢慢得就喜欢上这活儿，还挺好玩的！一点开工到六点多就准时收工了然后一群人骑单车去找吃了。 

又来到期待的晚餐时间。老师推荐了一件古早餐馆(不过忘了店名）。 这餐馆由老板娘一人打理。听说老板娘即将结婚，所以店面在几个月后就会结束了，好可惜哦！餐馆内的小吃 都不错，除了卤肉饭....。老师一早有提醒了，但我还是坚持....结果就是....so so ..! 还好，安慰的是我点了老板娘强力推荐的凤梨苦瓜鸡汤，这汤真的好赞！（可惜，忘了拍下来哦！）

主食吃完了，甜品时间到。 我和 Milo 俩继续找吃。 骑车到了花莲市区内吃了有名的包心粉圆和一心刨刨冰。 超爽的！骑车骑累了，来碗冰，好舒服哦！接着， 我们就沿着海滨路骑会美仑区，这路虽然长但是却·没有过于斜，所有·相对比较好骑。



I only start to work after three days in Hua Lian. Allen gave me the first task which is flatten the  surface on the ceiling .Noel has taught me some skills in doing this job. It is not too hard and only required some skills. It’s fun doing this as i never try such work before. 


Dinner time again. Allen has recommended us a restaurant (but i forgot the name). Only one person work here, Allen told us that the restaurant will be close in few months time as the owner going to marry soon, so she has no time to manage the shop afterward. I have try the pineapple bitter gourd chicken soup and pork rice. The soup is delicious but the rice only so...so....!              

Done with main meals, Milo and i continue to get some dessert in the town. We have try "Bao Xing Fen Yuan" and Yi Xin Ice in the town. Personally i like "Bao xing Fen Yuan" so much.  Refreshing !    

                                                                我好喜欢吃的包心粉圆，

第四天 Day 4

本来要和老师去骑193 路线的 ，结果因为要骑整整五个小时，我体力有限，所有就不去了。最后就改成就和 Wendy, Harry 还有Milo 骑单车到七星潭。大概凌晨四点多就起床了。 顶着一脸睡样，在微风阵阵的清晨努力的踩着单车往七星潭前进。虽然云层太厚无法看到日出，但却欣赏到七星潭的清晨的美。 躺在石堆上，听着一波一波的海浪声，所有的疲惫都抛往脑后了。


At first , Allen wants to bring us to cycle along 193 route . This route gonna take about 5 hours , so i give up，not going to join him.  So,  i went to "Qi Xing Tan" with Harry, Wendy and Milo. It is a bit disappointing as we do not able to see sunrise because it is cloudy. "Qi Xing Tang“  really beautiful. Lying on rocks, listening to waves, fresh air , RELAX !        

凌晨五点的七星潭 （QI XING TAN, 5 AM)

是躺着还是真的睡了呢？ Is lying on rocks take a rest or sleep?   

在七星潭享受了美好的清晨，我们便继续所谓的回笼觉。中午又再次开工了，披土披土我来了！ 发现把粗粗的墙弄得滑滑，也蛮好玩，好有成就感呢！

今晚是夏日恋嘉年华最后一天，重点是有苏打绿，所以我们都迫不及待把工作给做完，然后奔往演唱会那儿。 同样还是有老大哥“松鼠‘带路，今天多了两位朋友-hamburger 和小罗的加入。

哇！我还是第一次看这样的演唱会，当晚有帅气的范逸臣，同乡陈势安，还有压轴的苏打绿。尤其是苏打绿出场时，超high 的。 青峯好可爱哦！一直叫观众们.....冷静，冷静，还让观众点歌.....! 虽然下了绵绵细雨，我们还是不愿离开，继续待在哪儿听歌......" 这是一首简单的小情歌..........   , 天上风筝在天上飞，地上人儿在地上追........当时奋不顾身伸出我的手, 看见了轮廓就当作宇宙........啦啦啦”  好兴奋哦！



As usual, we have to continue our work from noon till 6pm. Then,  quickly rush to the concert right after finish our work.  Today was the last day for this summer carnival concert, and the most important things is our lovely "Soda Green"  band is performing tonight!      AWESOME !

苏打绿 

第五天 Day 5


今天还是一样继续在小房内披土。今天会有三位新人过来。所以，今天午餐和晚餐有老大- 阿敏和 betty请客，哦还有cyrus 老大请大伙儿喝酒。中午,去了老邵吃了东北菜，晚上着去了吃素食自助餐。接着就去和小麦啤酒加上hamburger 和小罗的宵夜.

晚上，我们就在“狂风暴雨”的黑夜 踩着单车与雨搏斗的骑回民宿。


As usual, today task is flatten the surface of the wall. Today, there are three "Lao Da" , so they have treat us for lunch, dinner and Beers. Hamburger and 小罗also brought us supper. Wow, free meals all day long !

Unfortunately, the weather is not in our side, rain cat and dogs afterward. We have to cycle in the rain . Rainy day plus strong winds!  it's cool  but really a unforgettable experiences anyway !  

中午的老大 -阿敏 来了 

                                                          这好好吃-好像叫炒面 （忘了）

晚餐老大-Betty (左）

                                                                       丰富的supper


第六天 Day 6

今天一大早就大家骑单车去了松林别馆逛逛。这地方曾是日据时代的指挥中心。这别馆背山面海，绿油油的草地加上复古的建筑风格，别有一番风味，满漂亮的。从这地方可以看到不错的海景。接着我们继续出发到庙口去喝庙口红茶和吃早餐。 这里的红茶蛮好喝，值得推荐。


Early in the morning, we cycle to " Song ling bie guan" which was a command center during Japan Colonizing era. We can see the Hua Lien Port from this place. The building is surrounded with flowers and greenery, make it very beautiful and refresh especially  in the early morning. After that,  We  have our breakfast or perhaps can consider as branch near the downtown temple. This place is famous with the black tea, also known as "Temple Black Tea" by locals.     

出发了！

                           
                                                                             松林别馆

                                                             
                                                                       "Chok " brothers

庙口红茶

本计划到铁路博物馆去看看，可惜当天没开。所以只好在周边走走，拍拍照。 这里也拍到了 “仆街少女” 和 “卧街少男'的铁路上的经典照!


Our next station supposed to be Railway Museum but it was close. So, we only able to capture some photos outside the museum. Two "classic photos" ware taken here.      

经典吧！ chok 哥，仆街少女 ， 卧街少男 和 不在状况的观众！

他们在干什么呢？ What they are doing ? 

                                                     
                                                                    Colourful Bicycle Gang


顶着大大的太阳继续往海边前进。 虽然顶着大大的太阳，但在海边吹着海风，那感觉是舒服的。 由于今早出门时天气阴阴的，所以大家都没搽上防晒，代价是就晒得“红通通”的！过后， 去了仓库美术馆，买了也寄了明信卡给自己和PY。 这仓库如果有时间值得来看一看。


Then, we cycle to nearby waterfront. Even though  it was already noon, listen to the waves, enjoying balmy pacific ocean winds blowing. Most of us forgot to put on sun block, so consequences is slight sun burnt .  We went to the art  gallery，bought the postcards and sent it home. This gallery worth to pay a visit if you are in Hua lien.  

  烈日当空下在海边吹风 ！

迟了一个小时工作，所以今天七点多才结束工作。 把之前披好土的地方给磨平了以后，再继续补厚度。补厚度比补平稍微难些及更需要耐心些。 今晚也有老大请客。今晚老大是四位美女-两位桃源人，Sandra 和 Cindy 及两位香港人 -Josie 和 Pinky. 吃了好贵也好丰富的一顿， 当晚也欣赏了“翻版陈奕迅” Cyrus 的好唱功 。

P/s; 明天就要离开花莲，开始舍不得大家，以及 这美丽的地方。 我还有好多地方没去，好多东西没吃呢！


We were late an hour for the work, so have to replace another hour till 7 o clock. I manage to smoother the wall surface and now another task is to flatten the area, it is not that easy , so the progress is a bit slow. Tonight, Sandra, Cindy, Pinky and Josie are "Lao Da' of the day, so they treat us a delicious dinner. We also have a chance to listen to nice song from Cyrus.

ps: start to feel sad because going to leave the next day

非常丰富的一餐 ，老大-Josie, Pinky, Cindy , Sandra

                                                               非常好吃的猪脚

                                                Have to cross this  bridge before reach the art gallery


第七天 Day 7

中午就要搭台铁去台北了。所以早上就和Milo,Sandra, Cindy 和 Betty 到 附近的海边看日出，结果还是无法看到日出。 不过我还是非常享受花莲早晨宁静的美。离开花莲之前，还吃了Kelvin 老大请的好好吃的卤肉饭，就在自强夜市附近而已。

看海，骑单车，吃吃东西，逛逛景点和一帮来自不同地方的朋友聊天构出了一幅幅花莲难忘的点点滴滴。


I am leaving Hua Lien this afternoon, so in the early , together with Milo, Sandra, Cindy and Betty to see sunrise. Again, still not able to see sunrise as it is too clousdy but i enjoy the silence and brautiful morning in Hua Lien so much. Before leaving, i also have a chance to meet the new " Lao Da " and have a tasty braised pork rice near Zhi Qiang Area.

Sea, cycle, delicious foods, beautiful places and nice friends have given me  an unforgettable memories in Hua lien.

又是看不到日出的一天！

小红单车是我在花莲的宝贝！

       
                                     离开花莲前吃的好吃卤肉饭，谢谢一面之缘的老大

越南旅记 之 阿雯篇

拖了又拖，已一个月了，我的越南游记都还没写好，照片也还未完全整理，真的好惭愧哦！那就先来分享我驴友雯的游记。 （哈哈哈，已获得雯本人的同意了 =P ）

文：洁雯

阿雯的越南之旅记

这次，仍然是半年前订的机票，目的地是一个语言不通且了解不多，只知道有个地方名叫胡志明市的越南。真正筹备只有那么的一次。而那一次，我也因为中途得载老师回酒店，所以只谈了20分钟就抛下两位友人在Station 1慢慢安排我们越南之旅的行程。

出发的前一晚，心情没有异常兴奋。直到在飞机上看见湄公河的那一刻，兴奋的心情不言而喻。机场外的人群多不胜数，我那时才惊觉胡志明市这城市原来是个人数不少的市区。上了巴士，巴士司机竟然把行李箱算一个人头计算。这是越南政府的规定吗？还是。。。？还没真正考察。

                           

                              云层下面就是湄公河了

                 胡志明市给我的第一个印象是...机车...机车再 机车  

兜兜转转，终于来到Saigon Youth Hostel。吃了鸡扒饭午餐回来后到旅行社询问第二和第三天的行程。认识了Lac Hong旅行社可爱的Kelvin。我们订了古芝隧道和 湄公河的行程后走路到War Remnants Museum，再到Ben Thanh Market 逛逛，买了著名的咖啡。晚餐在快餐店Loretto吃虾肉汉堡。回旅店发现日本男室友睡着了。或许我们太吵的关系，不一会儿，他就出去了。我们随后也到酒吧一面听歌，一面喝汽水、啤酒。

他人有one night in Beijing, 我们亦有one night in saigon....lalalalala

在旅店吃了越南面包为早餐后，到旅行社等待古芝隧道半日游，了解越南战士在美越战争时在古芝隧道生活的情况。导游的英文不大清晰，需要很留意听每一个字。回到市区后，吃粥。好吃的粥配上不好吃的油条，整体来说还是好吃。去到Reunification Museum已四点，刚刚好它关闭时间，无法参观。回到Hello Hotel小休后，到附近吃晚餐。点菜。吃了Ell等三道菜。再去夜市Ben Thanh Market，买腰豆、纪念品，吃水果、糯米饭。在旅店休息后下大雨。

胡志明的景点

第三天一早到早市逛逛，蹲着吃了当地小食，买了豆浆水。去湄公河前和Kelvin拍了唯一一张我们三人在越南旅游的照片，途中也买了艺术品。湄公河一日游上认识了菲律宾、法国的背包旅客。蜜蜂、蛇通通不敢触摸。边吃水果，边听山歌有不一样的感觉。乘坐三板时遇上毛毛细雨，又有不一样的体验。骑马车的路途欣赏风景。简单的午餐后下的大雨使我们无法探索其他地方。

和可爱kelvin唯一的合照  

回去旅社小休片刻前买了里面充满肉的包。Hans和老板娘介绍我们到District 3吃Wrap and role。包得不像样，照吃。过后在那里走走。很大。回去District 1后到酒吧边看路景边喝咖啡、啤酒。

————————————————————————————————————————

第四天   四点多乘坐专车到机场，飞岘港，搭德士到惠安。到了机场才订酒店，被安排住在地下室，有被骗的感觉，之后加一点钱，住2楼，舒服多了。过后马上骑脚车到惠安市区。在博物馆前从脚车上跌倒，听Jane说，还蛮多人望过来，不敢多望，心里想：还好不是扑到很丑，要不然。。。后果不堪设想。去珠燕极力推荐餐厅吃午餐，老板和太太非常热情，吃了猪肉面+芒果shake。把脚车放在餐厅后，在炎热的情况下到处走走逛逛。随后骑脚车跟着情侣骑脚车到海边。超有满足感。下午三、四点在海边吹海风，感觉真好。回到酒店小休再骑脚车回去市区看夜景。再到河边蹲着吃高楼面，与外国旅客互相帮忙拍照。预订了隔天回岘港，路经Marble Mountain的巴士票。

         

                        雯准备骑车同时也不忘回头摆 Pose ！ 

会安出名的是灯笼

会安地标-会安广场

会安的海边-骑车从古城到海边，虽然很晒，但是超爽的！

再次回到uncle店享受吃早餐。超好喝的咖啡乌加炸云吞，绝配。回去酒店途中迷路，还好兜兜转转还能在check out时间前回到。乘坐巴士到岘港，不过路途并没有在Marble Mountain停我们，打乱我们的算盘。到Little Home后到处走走。晚上到市场买干粮、快熟面。钱包也要放进纸袋。

看,够夸张吧! 钱包，手拿包包统统封起来 （超市内）

吃了早餐后搭巴士到Marble Mountain。爬着上，做电梯下。好玩。坐巴士回岘港途中遇到会说英文的越南人。介绍我们好吃的，可是由于越南币所剩无几，唯有放弃美食，随便吃。肠粉+gah（鸡）粉，遇见可爱的爱鸟之人。炎热的下午吃KFC的冰淇淋和喝清凉甘蔗水让我们解解渴。

大理石山 （Marble Mountain) - 山中有洞，洞中有洞，别有洞天  是对这地方满贴切的形容吧！

抵达机场的时间比预定的时间早。所以要求的士帅哥载我们兜兜风，可惜他听不懂英文，唯有打电话翻译。能近距离看岘港特别的渔船让我们俩兴奋不已。

没有充分的准备、自己的粗心大意让我有少许的遗憾，但整体而言，越南之旅真的是一级棒！背包旅行最重要与旅伴互相配合，互相照应。幸好两位旅伴都是合格的旅伴。越南之旅让我增加了不少背包的经验。期待下一次的背包旅行。不过，澳门、越南之旅仍然在我心中，回忆永远留在心中。

有许多的事与物是取决于我们如何看待，如何去做取舍。

以不同的层面，不同的角度去发掘，感受，那又会是另一番的体会。

沙巴亚庇休闲行-海岛游 Kota Kinabalu Leisure Trip-Islands

Jesselton Point Jetty - a one-stop ferry terminal to go islands in Tunku Abdul Rahman Park, KK


Our island trip:  Manukan and Mamutic Island
我们的海岛游： Manukan 和Mamutic 岛

First destination: Manukan Island
第一个目的地： Manukan 岛

    

Second destination: Mamutic Island
第二个目的地： Mamutic 岛

白化了的珊瑚 

                           

         

The main ferry terminal to islands in Tunku Abdul Rahman Park is Jesselton Point Jetty. You can get the boat ticket from any counters in this jetty. I got boat ticket for RM 25 per person. Besides, we also need to pay tax on our own , it is Rm7.60 per person (can get half price by showing student card) and island entrance fee for RM3 (non-malaysian need to pay RM10) .  I pay another  RM5 to rent for snorkeling masks and life jacket. You can rent these equipment when you buy boat ticket. 
Jesselton Point 码头是到东姑阿都拉曼园船的集中区。你可以在码头的柜台买去各岛屿的船票。我买到一个人二十五零吉的票，如果厉害杀价，你也许会获得更低的价格。除了船票，我们还需要自己付码头税，一个人 七块六（有学生卡半价）以及岛屿的入门票，每个人三零吉（外国人 十零吉）。 我另外多付了五零吉来租浮潜面具及救生衣。可以在买船票时一同租这些用具。


p/s:  Try to bargain and compare the price when you buy boat ticket and rent the equipment in the jetty.  


p/s: 当买船票及租浮潜工具时记得要杀价哦！  

Tips：Remember to bring white bread along when snorkeling. From my experience, white bread attract more fishes. You can put the bread into transparent plastic bottle and bring them along when snorkeling. By this way, your bread won't finish fast and can attract more fish.


贴士：浮潜时记得带些白面包。白面包会引更多的鱼。你可以把面包放进透明的塑料瓶里 ，带着去浮潜。这样你的面包就不会太快完，你也可以不断引鱼群到你身边。      

沙巴亚庇休闲行 Kota Kinabalu Leisure Trip (Day1-2)

Sabah, a beautiful state in East Malaysia. It 's a place where i always want to visit. When mention about Sabah, the pictures comes across my mind are beautiful islands, beaches and of course Mount Kinabalu. This is the first time i m here Kota Kinabalu, Capital  city of  Sabah.
沙巴， 美丽的东马州属，一个我向往多时的地方。 当提起沙巴，脑海的画面总离不开美丽的岛屿，沙滩，还有哥打京那巴鲁山（神山）。 这是我第一次到哥打京那巴鲁，沙巴首府。

Kota Kinabalu is  on the top of Borneo island facing South China Sea, it is located along west coast division of Sabah. Kota Kinabalu is the smallest districts in Sabah but have the largest population. Previously, Kota Kinabalu  was known as Jesselton, some local people also call the place as Api-Api or Api, which means fire in Malay.
哥打京那巴鲁坐落于婆罗洲上边，面向南中国海，一个很小的县但却是州内人口最多的地区。独立前其英文名是 Jesselton, 当地人也称它为亚庇, 马来语火的意思。

I went KK with my parents. 3 hours flight from Penang.   Once reached KK, we took a taxi  (RM 50) to Tune hotel, which is located in One Borneo, about 30 minutes from airport. We booked Tune Hotel during promotion so only cost us Rm160  4nights for two rooms.But i would like to recommend to stay in hotels in Kota Kinabalu Town. This is because Tune hotel is quite far from the town, normally about 20 minutes, but there is always traffic jam near One Borneo, so sometimes may take up to 30 minutes to reach the town. It is also not very convenient if you would like to hunt for local food near KK town because the shuttle bus provided by One Borneo only  run every one hour from 9am onward and stop only in one location, Warisan Square.

这次的亚庇之旅是和爸妈一起去的，从槟城出发，大概三小时的机程。到了机场我们便乘上德士去 Tune Hotel, (车费：RM 50) .      Tune Hotel  坐落于One Borneo, 大概半个小时车程从机场。我们是在促销期间订的所以非常便宜，两间房住四天才RM160. 不过， 我还是会建议住在KK市区的酒店，因为Tune hotel 离市区大概要二十分钟的路程，One Borneo 前的那条路经常塞车，所以有时要花将近半小时才能到市区。 如果想方便逛街，找食物，那住在市区内会更好。虽说OneBorneo 有提供免费巴士但是却非常不方便，巴士早上九点后每小时才一趟且只停在 文化广场前。

                  Shuttle bus counter in One Borneo 

 

First day, we took shuttle bus to KK town. We walked along the waterfront. There are many seafood restaurants, pubs and cafeterias along waterfront. If you wanna hunt for more local foods and buy some fresh and cheap seafood or vegetables, you can walk further down to Night Market beside waterfront. There are variety of foods and drinks available. We decided to try on BBQ seafood in Night Market. The price was very reasonable but the taste just normal. If you are not too picky, do try this BBQ seafood and feel  to be locals ( there are quite a numbers of local people in this night market). After dinner, we walked along the waterfront enjoy a leisure evening.

第一天，我们搭了免费巴士到KK市区。沿着堤岸走，你会发现有许许多多的海鲜馆，咖啡馆及酒吧，听着海风，和杯啤酒或咖啡，多么美好的享受哦！如果你想要吃到更多当地食物，不妨沿着堤岸往下走，你将会看到一个夜市场。也是内除了有新鲜便宜的海鲜及蔬菜，也有许多的食物如海鲜煮炒，面或米粉汤，马来糕点，烧烤海鲜及各式饮品。我们吃烧烤海鲜，点了鱼，虾还有墨鱼，价格非常合理，不过味道一般般。如果不太过挑剔，不妨试一试这里的烧烤，体会一下当当地人的感觉。（夜市内有许多当地人 ）。晚餐后，我们又继续散散步，吹吹海风，享受休闲的傍晚。

The next day, again we took shuttle bus to KK town. It was Sunday and we went to Sunday Market in Gaya street. I like such market so much, it is a best place to hunt for unique and cheap stuffs. We have spent nearly 3 hours in this market. There are variety of stuffs ranging from clothes, pearls, jewellery, unique native crafts,pets，foods，vegetables and fruits.The market is crowed with people.

隔天， 又搭了免费巴士到 KK 市区。 我们去了Gaya 街的星期天市场（只有每逢星期天才有的）。我是爱逛这类市场的人，因为可以淘到特别，又价廉物美的东西，尤其是手工艺品。我们大概逛了了三个小时。这人山人海的市场内包罗万象，有衣服，首饰，珍珠，手工艺品，宠物，食物，蔬菜水果。

I have bought pearl earring, hand-make necklace and my mum bought a pearl necklace. Actually, we are not good in differentiate the pearls, but seem the price is quite reasonable, and it looks nice , we decided to grab one home. (The long pearl necklace cost us RM 50 and ear ring cost RM8-9 per pair，).

Ps: Bargain price is a must when you purchase stuffs in this Gaya Market， the pearl necklace price was Rm130，we manage to close the deal with Rm50 after bargain.

我买了珍珠耳环，手工制作的项链，妈妈则买了一条长的珍珠项链。其实，我们并不懂得如何分辨珍珠，不过价格还Okay,而且蛮漂亮的，所以就决定买回来。
（长的珍珠链是RM 50 而 耳环是 Rm 8-9 per pair, 如果普通长度的珍珠链大概可以以RM20-RM30 买到)

Ps: 讨价还价是逛市场必须要做的事情，那珍珠链一开价就 Rm 130,结果成功杀价超过一半，以五十零吉成交。


We took breakfast in Xin Man Tai, Gaya street before shopping. Breakfast：  seafood bihun soup, fried noodles, and kong-lou noodles.
早餐：海鲜米粉，炒面，干捞面 - 新万泰，Gaya 街

We ate lunch at Yi Feng restaurant, which is located opposite the Atkinson Clock tower。Lunch: Laksa,  noodles。
午餐： Laksa 和干捞面  -怡丰餐馆 -Atkinson 钟塔对面

The next location was State museum and Cultural village. Museum is a  must place for me to visit whenever i reach a place. For me, Museum is a quick way for me to understand the history of the place and i enjoy hanging around museum very much ( The entrance fee is Rm 2). You can take Taxi from downtown to Museum, about Rm 8-9. You also can take a bus to Penampang direction, remember to stop when you noticed Queen Elizabeth Hospital on your right. There is a signboard  to museum near bus stop, about 5 minutes walking distance you will see the entrance to museum. Cultural village is just slight opposite the museum.

下一个地点是博物馆 和文化村。博物馆是一个快速了解一个地方的历史及文化的好去处。（入门票：RM 2). 你可以直接从市区做德士到博物馆，大概Rm8-9的德士费。当地也有巴士经过博物馆，你可以搭去Penampang 方向的巴士，然后在Queen Elizabeth 医院 对面下车，你会看到博物馆的牌，往小山丘走大约五分钟就可以看到博物馆大门了。文化村是在博物馆侧对面。

It's time for dinner. We decided to go Welcome Seafood Restaurant  recommend by my friends. The seafood is fresh especially the scallops. In general, the food in this restaurant was quite delicious...yummy yummy !
The crabs sell in the restaurant is very cheap only Rm18 per kg. Location: Asia City Complex , KK and
another branch in Penampang.


晚餐时间， 我们决定到朋友介绍的大茄来海鲜餐厅。这里的海鲜还满新鲜的尤其是那扇贝。值得一提的是这里的螃蟹只卖RM 18 per Kg, 非常便宜。Location: Asia City Complex，KK  ,另一间在Penampang.

旅途的无法预知，

旅途的苦与乐，

成了难忘的回忆。

 轻轻地叙述，

简简单单地记录，

“潓” 的脚步。
